Agilent 990 Micro GC
Agilent 990 Micro GC
Agilent 990 Micro GC systems provide the vital answers you need in the compact
footprint you want. They combine innovative, industry-leading features with the quality
and speed that are critical to your gas analysis.

Produce Actionable
Results, Fast
Innovative technologies deliver separate gases in seconds—in less space and with less power
and carrier gas consumption than benchtop GC systems. Quick, easy startup lets you achieve
results in minutes, even if you change measurement locations frequently.
Micromachined injectors
–– Higher dependability: silicon micromachined injector has no moving
parts to wear or break.
–– More functionality: software-selectable injection times cover a range
of application requirements.
–– Less wear and tear: available backflush capability protects the
analytical column.
–– Improved performance: injector can be heated to 110 °C, eliminating
discrimination of higher hydrocarbons.

Capture, Analyze, and Share Data
Agilent 990 Micro GC systems work with Agilent OpenLab CDS software for
optimal results. OpenLab CDS supports instrument control and digital data
acquisition from chromatography systems and hardware manufacturers around
the world.
–– Single platform for all instruments: no need for costly deployment of multiple
software packages from different vendors.
–– Scalable and easy to use: all versions share a common user interface
and formats for data and method files.
–– Grows with your lab: no costly retraining or method revalidation.
